CaptainJosephHD 0 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Hi All, I have recently been repainting the Gatwick BA fleet for the A320 and A319, but I cannot for the life of me get it to install to FSX through the livery manager. I put it into a ZIP file and go through the steps to install, but, I just get this.... http://prntscr.com/gj0yai And it doesn't install anything into the CFG or the texture into the liveries folder. Can anyone offer some assistance, or link to a tutorial for this? Knowing me....probably something I have missed Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheapCharlie 87 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Can you please copy and paste your repaint's aircraft.cfg entry. That will give us more information for troubleshooting. That being said, your attached screenshot seems to indicate the cfg entry is not complete. Also, it looks like you don't have a thumbnail picture (JPEG format) in your texture folder.

CaptainJosephHD 0 Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 The most part of the issue has now been solved, I just needed to change the way I zip up the file. However, the aircraft still will not install. This is the aircraft.cfg taken directly from the readme of an aircraft that works perfectly when installed manually.

CheapCharlie 87 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Captain Joseph, please verify your texture file is in a zipped format. *.RAR formats do not work. Also, your included configuration file that contains the above information should be a notepad file labeled readme.txt Finally, I found that the readme.txt file works best when there is some text above and below your main entry. Here is an example from the Air Canada A321 NEO project I collaborated with. Try using this as a template and tell me how it works: Place the texture folder in your FSX/SimObjects/Airplanes/Aerosoft Airbus A321 CFM folder and then open your aircraft.cfg file and copy and paste the below text into the livery section, changing the xx to whatever the next number in the sequence is. That is it! Thanks for downloading.
